Infertility is a reproductive system disorder characterized by the inability to attain pregnancy after one year or more of frequent unprotected intercourse. Infertility occurs in women’s reproductive years and has ramifications for their families and communities. Infertility in the female reproductive system can be caused by a variety of irregularities in the ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, and endocrine system, among several other things. There are several factors that may increase your chances of infertility, including:
●Age
With age, a woman’s egg quantity and quality continue to drop. The percentage of follicular damage accelerates in the mid-thirties, leading to fewer and lower-quality eggs. This complicates conception and increases the likelihood of pregnancy loss.
●Smoking
Smoking, in addition to impacting your cervix and oviducts, raises your risk of miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy. It is also assumed to prematurely mature your ovaries and decrease your eggs. Before actually starting fertility treatment, you should give up smoking.
●Weight.
Obesity or being seriously underweight may interfere with ovulation. Increasing your BMI to a healthy level may result in more frequent ovulation and the possibility of getting pregnant.
